Core Values...
Values central to the life, mission and vision of Fifth Avenue Church of Christ are: Christ-Centered Worship
We make it a priority every Sunday to celebrate Jesus through our music. (Romans 11:36-12:1-2). We focus on Jesus through gracebased preaching and teaching & understand the Bible is our authority (2 Timothy 3:16).
Global Evangelism
We are constant to our founding call to worldwide evangelism, proclaiming to all that Jesus Christ is the Savior, Healer, and SoonComing King (Acts 20:27).
Discipleship
We do not want you to "get religion" here at Fifth Avenue Church of Christ in Lancaster. We are all about teaching you that Jesus seeks a daily relationship with Him through a life of obedience. In other words, we want to see the things you are taught actually change your lifestyle & your daily decisions.
Social Conscience
We place high value on the sanctity of human life, of Biblical marriage and morality, and we welcome ethnic diversity (Isaiah 56:7; Philippians 2:15-16).

OUR MISSION
Library Spotlight
What Is God Like? by Beverly Lewis is an early reader or a Mommy and Me book. Before a father departs for his longest business trip yet, he encourages his children to remember that, Even when Im not here, God is always with you. After he leaves, the boy and his little sister spend a fun-filled day and star-filled night remembering everything they were told about their Father in heaven. With insightful text, Bible verses, and inspiring illustrations, What Is God Like? vividly answers the questions kids ask most. The final page offers encouragement and suggestions for parents who seek to teach their children about our wonderful heavenly Father. The Much-Adored Sandy Shore by Angela Elwell Hunt (book #5 in the Cassie Perkins Series) is a book for teen readers. Cassie Perkins is sick and tired of being told shes self-centered. Shes determined to prove it isnt true. Fortunately, she has the perfect plan: making over the class misfit, Sandy Shore. All it will take is a little makeup and a good diet, and Sandys life will be all she could ever want it to be. But theres something Cassie doesnt know. Something that all the makeup and dieting in the world cant fix. And shes about to learn that helping people isnt always as easy as it seems. Stop by our libraries and check out a good book. If you have any question about the libraries, contact Delores Payne.
